You need to insert te firmware of your wireless card in the
directory /lib/firmware the do at the terminal the following command (i
was done this with Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network
Connection) maybe can work with you:
su -c "modprobe ipw3945"

You can get more information here:
http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/ the project of the firmware for this
card ;)

Here is the link for the firmware:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ipw3945/ipw3945-1.2.2.tgz?download

Any problems with the installation just read the install file located
here:
http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/INSTALL
